Amidst Spring’s green swell,

the spill of wisteria

casts a purple spell.

                                                                      JDG

Each tree ages in

its own way, but all of them

are seeking the light.

                                                          JDG

Rabbits and squirrels play

in buttercup dotted fields

after last night’s storm.

                                                               JDG

They paused in mid-air,

those two birds, and seemed to kiss

before each moved on.

                                                                         JDG

Those feeding birds feed

my eyes, provide nourishment-

a soulful repast

                                                              JDG

Daffodils trumpet

golden music beneath sky’s

canopy of gray.

                                                                  JDG

Before the leaves

bud with their bright Spring promise,

bare limbs stretch and rest.
